The number of DPPC molecules were 126. I changed it to 128 in topol.top, then the grompp didn't give me any fatal error. I had changed the number of DPPC in top file in last step when the inflateGRO reporst that 2 DPPC were removed. Now, 128 DPPC is acceptable! What does it mean? Is it sensible?

But at the same time, if you're properly maintained the topology thus far, then you shouldn't have to. A difference of 100 atoms suggests there are 2 extra DPPC molecules in the coordinate file relative to the topology. I have no idea how you would have produced such a mismatch though. -Justin -- ======================================== Justin A.
